Nadal comforts Federer in tears after winning 2009 Australian Open | AO Classic | Eurosport Tennis

[@aslanbek7]

you are here too after the last match of Roger paired with Rafa and their tears😭😭😭

[@senoritasteffy4324]

Rafael Nadal is such a sweetie - his first words were all for Roger Federer rather than himself. He almost looked as if he was upset for winning

[@thecrow4122]

Rafa didn't want to show of a lot because of he's friend was hurt it shows you the greatness of the man

[@RealisticAndTrue]

When you lose a match and entire stadium gives you standing ovation and opponent joins in you know your the Greatest, respect for Nadal always class act

[@Fed-np9ez]

20 years of competitive rivalry at the highest level of professional sport, record 9 time grand slam finals played, and 42 Grand Slams between them. Even beyond their incredible personal careers, their friendship is still the greatest achievement in sports we have ever seen.

That shows how much respect and affection Rafa had for Roger since the begining. What a beautiful rivalery (and mainly friendship) it was...One of a kind. Thank you legends for all those years of Tennis.

[@maxikine1]

That’s why this two guys are the best.. respect.

[@orbitalwarrior]

You see how much work society has to do, shaming a man for crying. It merely shows his passion for the sport, and all the emotions that go with it. To say it was childish, and taking away Rafa's moment is just petty and narrow-minded and is representative for not being in touch with your own emotions.

L' empatia di Nadal verso Federer è incredibile!

[@cineastik8220]

1:42 you can see right here that Federer is angry at himself for crying, but sometimes you just cannot hold back the disappointment of a loss. He himself said he would like to turn back time and make it not happen in an interview prior to the US Open of that year…

[@lammie001]

Best of luck for the rest of the season Rafa said… well that worked out very well for Roger. Winning Roland Garros for the first time, Wimbledon crown back and winning the Aussie open the next year

[@saltnugget]

Poor young Rafa needs to endured years of being in a shadow of Federer even when he's winning, but he went / goes through it with class and dignity (as always) since then and it shows the quality of his characters (especially to Roger)… There's a reason why Roger is oh so proud now everytime Rafa achieved and broke record after records and praises him everytime he can on social medias.

Best friends before matches. Then they wanna kill each other.

[@toivonencresto]

Nadal found a way to tell everything should had not say... without wanting it :D (I'm sure, he's never been disrespectful with his friend Roger). This said, Roger lost many GS finals, in same way it's ok (you can lost matches like Wimbledon 2008), in other is NO way. This was in my opinion, speaking strictly of tennis and not emotions (W '08 and AO '17 are better for this), the pinnacle of their rivalry (W'07 was stellar too). But Roger should've won this match "easily", had it remained on the aggressive approach he showed in some moments of the match, instead of trying to beat Rafa on his own (long rallyes, same thing he cost so many lost in RG). Same for US '09 (one of the worst lost chances).

[@qwerttzizzi]

Is there a backstory why he was so emotional here?

[@cineastik8220]

Well, it was another tough loss against his nemesis back then, after losing a final in Roland Garros in an unparalleled brutal beatdown, then in Wimbledon in a super close thriller, the tournament which he had won five times in a row and would have set a record for consecutive wins there with a sixth one in a row, then losing the world number 1 spot to exactly Nadal, then bouncing back by winning the US open but not against Nadal but the player who eliminitated him innthe semis, so some critics said he just got lucky, and then having the chance prove everyone wrong and to equal Pete Sampras‘ record of 14 majors and being the favourite after Nadal survived a five-set-thriller in the semis, and having 19 break points against Nadal in that match, most of them in the third set which he actually should have won I think. It was another close loss to Nadal who had given him way too many close losses in the past…

I like Federer, but what a baby, it's taking the focus off the winner. Its upsetting for anyone that loses, but they dont cry. They are both great players.

[@jamesowen7518]

I think Jenny’s spot on. If Novak did this reaction after a loss he’d get absolutely slaughtered by the media for it. Federer cried because he lost but it’s ok to show emotions. It’s such double standards

Roger had enough successes, that was bad, crying like that, babyish and taking the limelight from the winner whether it be Rafa or anybody else. He should have immediately stepped back. Rafa must have felt uncomfortable in the situation. I actually think Roger is a bad loser.
